Mercedes Slk Roof Leak

I hope you enjoyed my simple video picture explanation on how i fix the leaks in my point 1 in my slk 200 vario roof.

Mercedes slk roof leak.

There are many drains on that roof. The hydraulic roof actuating cyliders 3 and the hydraulic cylinder for lock actuation 4 are located in the retractable top. The mercedes slk 172 cabriolet third generation continued with the popular two piece metal folding roof known as the vario roof which included a choice of a roof painted in the vehicle colour a panoramic vario roof with dark tinted windows or a panoramic vario roof with magic sky control containing a glass roof that could be switched to. Hope this helps good luck.

It s a home brewed method and i am sur. Do you treat your seals with gummi phledge. Over the years mercedes have launched to the market 3 generations of the mercedes slk cabriolet representing sportlich sporty leicht light and kurz short. It seems like the channel on the right side of the hardtop is now filled with oil and it is dripping on the right passenger seat headrest and floor board.

I have a 99 slk and the top will not go down. I would recommend rebuilding all five of the hydraulic cylinders. If you find out that the convertible top reservoir is low in fluid that means that you have a leak most likely at one of the convertible lift cylinders. You can see the leak on the plastic panel in the slk s trunk.

The mercedes slk cabriolet range was launched between 1996 and 2019 with the r170 1st generation compact roadster between 1996 2004. The hydraulic roof actuating cylinder on the driver side was leaking hydraulic fluid.
